ABSTRACT

La Organización Mundial de la Salud recomienda amamantar a los recién nacidos, pero resulta contraproducente si la madre presenta una enfermedad que afecte este proceso natural, como la depresión postparto (DPP), una complicación psiquiátrica frecuente en el puerperio que influye en la salud de la madre y del lactante. El tratamiento farmacológico consiste en la administración de antidepresivos, considerándose los riesgos y ventajas, algunos ISRS se destacan por su menor detección en la leche materna; por ello la Sertralina puede ser el más seguro, el lactante ingiere cantidades pequeñas y generalmente no se detectan en el plasma. También se requiere de consejería por la incertidumbre de continuar o no amamantando.


The World Health Organization recommends breastfeeding newborns,but it is counterproductive if the mother presents a disease that affects this natural process, such as possible acute or chronic pathologies in the life cycle of pregnancy, as well as in lactation; one of them is postpartum depression (PPD), a frequent psychiatric complication in the puerperium that influences the health of the mother and the infant, such as early interruption or continued breastfeeding. Pharmacological treatment consists of the administration of antidepressants, considering the risks and advantages, some SSRIs stand out for their lower detection in breast milk; for this reason Sertraline may be the safest, the infant ingests small amounts and is generally not detected in the plasma. It is also the most used during lactation according to most researchers. Mothers may need breastfeeding counseling due to the uncertainty of continuing or not breastfeeding

ABSTRACT

Postpartum depression (PPD) prevalence is 10-15% and higher among vulnerable groups in the United States and internationally. Although PPD screening is becoming the norm, treatment rates remain low. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to examine treatment (i.e., medication and/or therapy) rates at 6 weeks and 3 months postpartum with encouragement from nurses for women with confirmed PPD and to examine rates in relation to symptom severity. METHODS: descriptive design, over 5,000 women was screened for PPD and those meeting initial screening criteria completed confirmatory diagnostic interviews. Nurses encouraged and offered assistance to women with high symptom severity to obtain additional evaluation and treatment. Descriptive statistics and Chi square analyses were employed to examine treatment rates and rates by symptom severity. RESULTS: Of the 134 enrolled women, 26.9% were receiving treatment at 6 weeks postpartum. At 3 months postpartum, 33.9% were receiving treatment. The increase in the proportion receiving treatment over time was not significant. However, at 6 weeks, symptom severity was associated with receiving treatment, but it was not at 3 months. CONCLUSIONS: Of importance, at both time points, a majority of women with high PPD symptom levels had not received treatment. Despite encouragement and offers of assistance, a majority did not obtain treatment, and rates did not increase significantly over time. Research is needed to decrease barriers and improve PPD treatment accessibility and availability. In addition, more knowledge about effective strategies to engage women in PPD treatment is needed.


La prevalencia de la depresión posparto (PPD) es del 10-15% y es más alta entre los grupos vulnerables en los Estados Unidos e internacionalmente. Aunque la detección de PPD se está convirtiendo en norma, las tasas de tratamiento siguen siendo bajas. PROPÓSITO: el propósito de este estudio fue examinar las tasas de tratamiento (medicamentos y /o terapia) en relación con la gravedad de los síntomas a las 6 semanas y 3 meses después del parto en mujeres con depresión posparto confirmada que fueron estimuladas por enfermeras. MÉTODOS: diseño descriptivo realizado en más de 5.000 mujeres que fueron seleccionadas para PPD., Aquellas que cumplían los criterios de selección iniciales completaron entrevistas de diagnóstico confirmatorio. Las enfermeras ofrecieron asistencia y motivación a las mujeres con alta severidad de los síntomas para obtener una evaluación y tratamiento adicional. Se utilizaron estadísticas descriptivas. Se efectuaron análisis de Chi cuadrado para examinar las tasas de tratamiento y las tasas de severidad de los síntomas. RESULTADOS: de las 134 mujeres inscritas, el 26,9% estaban recibiendo tratamiento a las 6 semanas después del parto. A los 3 meses después del parto, el 33,9% recibía tratamiento. El aumento en la proporción que recibía tratamiento con el tiempo no fue significativo. Sin embargo, a las 6 semanas, la gravedad de los síntomas se asoció con la recepción de tratamiento, pero no fue así a los 3 meses. CONCLUSIONES: la importancia, de ambos periodos fue que se identificó que la mayoría de las mujeres con niveles de síntomas altos PPD no había recibido tratamiento. A pesar de recibir motivación y ofertas de ayuda, una mayoría no obtuvo el tratamiento, y las tasas no aumentaron significativamente con el tiempo. La investigación es necesaria para disminuir las barreras y mejorar la accesibilidad PPD tratamiento y la disponibilidad. Además, se necesita mayor conocimiento sobre las estrategias eficaces para lograr que las mujeres mantengan el tratamiento para PPD.

ABSTRACT

Postpartum depression, a potentially serious public health problem can be effectively treated. With the implementation of universal screening with a standardized, self-administered screening tool, in conjunction with appropriate education and training of health care providers to increase awareness of this problem and to impart greater diagnostic suspicion, identification of and early intervention for PPD can be facilitated. There is need for increased collaboration between Obstetric and Consultation Liaison Psychiatric Services, with particular emphasis on the prevention of psychiatric morbidity associated with pregnancy, thereby improving the quality of life for and interaction between mother and child. The establishment of a true Liaison Psychiatric Service dedicated to pregnancy and the postpartum period, with a Psychiatrist employed by the Obstetric Services, may be of great value.

ABSTRACT

To report the case of a 28-year old hypercholesterolemic female with postpartum depression, whose triglyceride [TG] and total cholesterol [TC] levels decreased while being treated with fluoxetine. A 28-year old female, with a diagnosis of major depressive disorder with postpartum onset based on DSM-IV criteria, was hospitalized at a mental health hospital. Her past history included another episode of depression 4 months after giving birth to her second child, which was 12 years prior to her recent episode. Her serum total cholesterol and triglyceride levels were measured prior to the initiation of medication. Then fluoxetine was initiated at a daily dose of 20 mg and had been increased to 40 mg per day at the time of discharge. The lipid profile measurements was repeated at week 4 and 8 following treatment. Total cholesterol level was reduced from 242 mg/dL at baseline to 224 mg/dL at week 4 and to 202 mg/dL at week 8; triglyceride level was decreased from 516 mg/dL to 448 mg/dL at week 4 and to 404 mg/dL at week 8. Fluoxetine may be an appropriate treatment for hyperlipidemic women with postpartum depression

ABSTRACT

Depressão pós-parto é tema atual, complexo e controverso. A depressão pós-parto afeta não só as mães que apresentam o problema, mas toda a família. A prevalência da depressão pós-parto está entre 12 e 15 porcento. Geralmente obstetras sentem-se inseguros para diagnosticar e tratar depressão pós-parto. Eles podem ter muita dificuldade para fazer o diagnóstico pois há ampla variação na apresentação clínica, considerando tanto a variedade quanto a gravidade dos sintomas. O obstetra deve estar atento a aspectos como agendamento oportuno de consulta após parto, valorização das queixas somáticas de difícil diagnóstico, prestar atenção às preocupações dos parentes mais próximos sobre o bem estar e atitudes da mãe, além de incluir a investigação das disfunções tireoidianas no puerpério. Fatores de risco como história pessoal e familiar de depressão, falta de suporte social, conflitos conjugais, ansiedade e depressão na gravidez são muito importantes. Os possíveis papéis do obstetra na depressão pós-parto são o desenvolvimento de uma nova atitude, a ser iniciada já no pré-natal, que inclua discussão de aspectos psico-sociais (sexualidade, matrimônio, vida sexual e profissional), utilização de instrumentos para rastreamento, conhecimento das opções terapêuticas, oferecer suporte durante o trabalho de parto, individualizar o atendimento, proporcionando cuidado próximo e atencioso ou, encaminhamento, quando indicado

ABSTRACT

Las depresiones que se presentan durante el embarazo y después del parto constituyen un importante problema de salud pública. Si bien la etiología es desconocida, su aparición se asocia a la depleción de ácidos grasos omega-3. Estado propio del embarazo, pues la madre traspasa sus reservas al feto, para la formación del cerebro de éste. Consecuentemente, la suplementación con ácidos grasos omega-3 ha demostrado ser eficaz para tratar la depresión tanto en embarazadas como en otro tipo de pacientes. Por lo tanto, es aconsejable suplementar a las embarazadas con estos ácidos grasos para prevenir y tratar las depresiones relacionadas al embarazo. Esta acción tiene las ventajas de ser inocuo durante el embarazo y la lactancia, además de traspasarse al feto durante estos períodos, permitiendo su adecuado desarrollo cerebral.

ABSTRACT

Para el profesional de la salud enfrentado a la necesidad de tratar un trastorno psiquiátrico puerperal, en el entendido de que el uso de estrategias terapéuticas no farmacológicas ha fracasado o no es posible, la decisión de usar (o abstenerse de usar) un psicofármaco representa un dilema clínico. Por una parte, hoy nadie discute los beneficios de la lactancia. Pero en ausencia de estudios que demuestren que el uso de psicofármacos en madres que amamantan es inocuo para el niño, el eventual uso de este tipo de medicación durante la lactancia exige una cuidadosa evaluación de la relación riesgo/beneficio
